Catherine is busy cooking in the kitchen, where she has never stepped a foot inside. And the servant who always disrespects her, calls her young master respectfully.With the words, young master, all the people sitting on the sofa in the living room look at her.
When Jamie has eye contact with a pair of dazzling eyes, she lowers her head in hurry.
No wonder the whole family are acting weird, it’s because Dan's here.
When Jamie is thinking how she can sneak back to her room, Jack calls her. She has no choice but to go to Jack in front of everyone's eyes.
At this time, Jack looks less stern than before. He introduces, “Dan, this is my son, Jamie.” Then he says to Jamie, "Jamie, Dan is your sister’s fiance, you should call him brother-in-law.”
“Brother...Brother-in-law.” Jamie's tongue begins to tremble, and the whole person begins to shake.
These small details are caught by Dan.
Dan recalls that Jamie wasn’t so frightened like now even when she was humiliated at the club. Seems that she really does have something to do with the woman that night.
Dan confirms his thought in mind, he says with smile, “Am I a monster? Why are you so scared of me? Is it because you did something wrong to me?”
As soon as he says this, Jamie is flustered that her face turns red.
Of course she is afraid of him, for what happened that night. And what scared her most, is being recognized!
“I...I didn’t.” Jamie stutters again.
Jack gets angry seeing Jamie's appearance. However, Jacqueline is happy, for having a chance to talk to Dan finally.
This is her best chance to fawn on Dan.
Jacqueline says in affectation voice, “Mr William, my brother is too young to have much experience. Please don’t blame him, that will frighten him.” Saying this, Jacqueline tries to sit closer to Dan. But before she can move, she gets stopped by a look from Dan.
